Money Back Special (13:50 Newbury) – Paddy Power

There’s a big day of racing at Newbury on Saturday and you don’t want to miss this Money Back Special from Paddy Power! Simply place a bet of up to £10.00 on the 13:50 at Newbury and if Moyassar wins, Paddy Power will refund all losing bets as a free bet, up to a maximum of £10.00. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a potential profit of £7.20 and here’s how…

Key Terms:

  • We must place our bet between 10:00 on Thursday 16th May 2019 and 13:50 (race-off) on Saturday 18th May 2019.
  • Offer applies to single bets or the win part of each way bets.
  • If less than 5 runners take part, this offer will not apply.
  • If our horse loses and Moyassar wins the race, Paddy Power will refund our stake as a free bet, up to £10.00.

Qualifying Bet:

If you’re unsure about how to place qualifying bets, check out my Qualifying Bet Strategy page for a walk-through guide on how they should be done.

For our qualifying bet, we need to back and lay any horse other than Moyassar. At the time of writing, the lay odds aren’t quite tight enough, so I’ll use fictional lay odds for Red Impression (7/2) in the following example and I’ll update the bottom of the post with an actual selection after the race.

We can calculate our lay stakes using my matched betting calculator.

Aim to lose no more than £0.80 on our qualifying bet

Outcomes:

Let’s have a look at our potential profit/loss for the possible outcomes…

Outcome Bookie Exchange Extracted Profit/Loss
Red Impression wins +£35.00 -£35.80 £0.80 loss
Moyassar wins -£10.00 +£9.20 +£8.00 £7.20 profit
Another horse wins -£10.00 +£9.20 £0.80 loss

So, if Moyassar wins, we’ll make a nice profit of £7.20. Any other outcome and we’ll lose £0.80. Risking £0.80 to make a profit of £7.20, gives us effective odds of 10.00. So, given that Moyassar is odds of just 3.75 (11/4) to win the race, this is a profitable offer in the long run.

If eligible, free bets will be credited within 2 hours of the race ending and will be valid on any market for 7 days.

If you’re unsure how to extract £8.00 cash (80%) from the £10.00 free bet, check out my Free Bet Strategy page for a walk-through guide on how it should be done.

* Red Impression was available at back odds of 4.333 and lay odds of 4.60. Khaadem won the race, resulting in a loss of £0.73 on this Paddy Power offer. *
